Legal Research Can Improve Settlements

 

Even if a lawsuit ultimately settles before getting to court, Simm’s incisive legal research and rigorous analysis will enable you (and your client) to better evaluate your case's strength (or weakness) and so to negotiate on an informed basis.

High-quality research and analysis may also significantly bolster your client's BATNA and boost his perceived credibility about pursuing adjudication. This would, of course, tend to improve your leverage in negotiations and yield a better settlement.
